In the morning. 清晨。 Lu Zhou is sitting in the buffet in Kuririn Xiya Hotel is enjoying the bread and coffee, while defers to the convention landing mailbox inspection not to read the mail, as well as landed on arxiv to glance over a theory of numbers, algebra Geometry and differential manifold and other to be marked tracing latest research results of direction by him. 陆舟正坐在克林西亚酒店的自助餐厅里一边享用着面包和咖啡,一边按照惯例登陆邮箱检查未读邮件,以及登陆arxiv上浏览了一下数论、代数几何、微分流形等几个被他标记了追踪的方向的最新研究成果。 For serveral days, the entire mathematics circles was very peaceful, specially many interesting news have not emitted. Probably at mathoverfolw this kind of specialized academic forum, majority of discussion are also not the academic issue, displacing is some Eight Trigrams (gossip) about mathematics circles. 这些天来,整个数学界都很安静,没有特别多有趣的消息放出。像是mathoverfolw这类专业性的学术论坛上,讨论的大多数也都不是学术问题,取而代之的都是一些关于数学界的八卦。 Even if were not everyone received the invitation of imu congress, but almost most mathematicians are paying attention to this soon the world grand meeting that opened in St. Petersburg. 即便不是所有人都收到了imu大会的邀请,但几乎绝大多数数学家都在关注着这场即将在圣彼得堡开幕的世界盛会。 When Lu Zhou is glancing over one about Fields rewards the post of forecast voting, a neckband clamps the Russian guy of sunglasses to sit in his opposite, blew a whistling. 就在陆舟正在浏览着一条关于菲尔茨奖预测投票的帖子的时候,一位领口夹着墨镜的俄罗斯大汉坐在了他的对面,吹了个口哨。 „Can trouble you to treat today as far as possible in the hotel?” “可以麻烦你今天尽量待在酒店里吗？” Moved out of the way the line of sight from the computer screen, the line of sight that Lu Zhou will inquire went to him. 从电脑屏幕上挪开了视线,陆舟将询问的视线投向了他。 „What happened?” “发生了什么事情吗？” „The words that must speak, truly gave rise to some problems,” takes down the sunglasses of neckband, with the eyeglasses cloth mop scratching, Maximu said with the chatting tone, „some people invaded St. Petersburg power network system, inserted several unclean codes in inside. Moreover according to our National Security Information office analyzes, this possibly is a deliberate action.” “非要说的话,确实发生了一些问题,”取下领口的墨镜,用眼镜布擦了擦,马西姆用闲聊的口吻说道,“有人入侵了圣彼得堡这边的电网系统,在里面插入了几条不干净的代码。而且根据我们的国家安全情报办公室分析,这可能是一起有预谋的行动。” Lu Zhou speechless say/way: „...... This can also not premeditate?” 陆舟无语道:“……这还能是没预谋的吗？” „You have not understood that my meaning,” lifted the line of sight to look to Lu Zhou, Maximu smiled to say slightly, „I mean, this possibly was one deliberate, in view of your murder.” “你没明白我的意思,”抬起视线看向了陆舟,马西姆微微笑了笑说道,“我的意思是,这可能是一场有预谋的,针对你的谋杀。” The atmosphere on table froze instantaneously. 餐桌上的气氛瞬间冻住了。 As if was the silent technique was the same, peaceful. 就仿佛是中了沉默术一样,安静了下来。 This probably is the first time. 这大概还是第一次。 His safety, was threaten truly. 他的生命安全,真正受到了威胁。 Throat slightly somewhat dry, Lu Zhou lifted the coffee cup to drink one. 喉咙微微有些干涩,陆舟抬起咖啡杯喝了一口。 With three seconds restored calmly, he puts down the coffee cup, said calmly. 用三秒钟的时间恢复了冷静,他将咖啡杯放下,镇定地说道。 „...... Speaks the truth, this is a little forced. The breakdown of nuclear power station, is connected with the murder, was too a little forced.” “……说实话,这有点牵强。只是核电站的故障,和谋杀关联起来,还是有点太牵强了。” Blasts a nuclear power station to cope with him...... 炸掉一座核电站来对付他…… Side of Helios Nuclear Power Station is St. Petersburg, Russia second largest city, how even the Controlled Nuclear Fusion technology again is safely clean, again how, that is still the belt/bring nuclear character. 赫利俄斯核电站的旁边就是圣彼得堡,俄罗斯的的第二大城市,即便可控聚变技术再怎么清洁、再怎么安全,那也是带个核字的。 If the matter exposes, this perhaps not only regional conflict that simple issue. 如果事情败露的话,这恐怕就不只是地区争端那么简单的问题了。 Even if slides to the brink of war, Lu Zhou will not find it strange. 哪怕是滑向战争的边缘,陆舟都不会觉得奇怪。 „Over 80% possibilities, at least we thought that compares Helios fusion power plant, somebody's strategic value must be more important, moreover can successfully destroy friendly relations between us and neighboring country, if after all you really met troublesome in Russia, that is not one ‚we deeply feels sorry that’ can send casually.” “八成以上的可能性,至少我们觉得相比起赫利俄斯聚变电站,某个人的战略价值显然要更重要,而且还能够成功破坏我们和邻国之间的友好关系,毕竟你要是真在俄罗斯遇到了麻烦,那可不是一句‘我们深感抱歉’就能随便打发掉的。” Will scratch the clean sunglasses to wear on the bridge of the nose, Maximu lifted the eyebrow to Lu Zhou, shoves open the chair to stand up. 将擦干净的墨镜戴在了鼻梁上,马西姆向陆舟抬了抬眉毛,推开椅子站起身来。 Is away from the sunglasses, he uses the earnest line of sight to stare at Lu Zhou , to continue to say. 隔着墨镜,他用认真的视线盯着陆舟,继续说道。 „In brief, the present situation is, some people planned that is disadvantageous to you, we did not determine that they after ‚a plan’ failure whether also has ‚the B plan’ to wait for you, to avoid having the accident/surprise, hope you to be able as far as possible the activities control in this hotel. Here our 100% assurances ensure your security, but the words far away from here, this number possibly only has 90%, even is 80.” “总之,现在的情况是,有人打算对你不利,我们不确定他们在‘a方案’失败之后是否还有‘b方案’等着你,所以为了避免发生意外,还是希望你能够尽量将活动范围控制在这间酒店里。在这里我们有百分之一百的把握保证你的安全,而离这里太远的话,这个数字可能就只有百分之九十,甚至是八十。” „I knew,” Lu Zhou nods, the line of sight moved out of the way from Maximu's face , to continue to look to the computer screen, „, although does not know that was who thinks highly of me, but I as far as possible activities control in hotel.” “我知道了,”陆舟点了点头,视线从马西姆的脸上挪开,继续看向了电脑屏幕,“虽然不知道是谁这么看得起我,但我会尽量将活动范围控制在酒店里的。” Originally he not during the imu congress, the plan that strolls outside everywhere randomly. 本来他也没有在imu大会期间,在外面到处乱逛的打算。 Since some people stared at him, that was the discrete point is quite good. 既然有人盯上他了的话,那还是谨慎点比较好。 „Basic situation was this, a while I also important things need to process, is not treating here, wish you to pass today happily.” “基本情况就是这样了,一会儿我还有一件重要的事情需要去处理,就不在这里待着了,祝你今天过得愉快。” Gesticulated the hand signal of saying goodbye, Maximu moved toward the entrance of buffet with a smile. 比划了个再见的手势,马西姆笑着走向了自助餐厅的入口。 However after the Lu Zhou seat by, he about looked at one suddenly, did intentionally pulled down the body carefully, said one low voice. 然而就在经过陆舟座位旁边的时候,他忽然左右瞄了一眼,故作小心地压低了身子,小声说了一句。 „...... That places that have many good girls, must have the opportunity I to lead you next time again.” “……那个有很多好姑娘的地方,恐怕得下次有机会我再带你去了。” Hears this sudden sound, just drank the next coffee Lu Zhou, had almost not been choked. 听到这突如其来的声音,刚刚喝下一口咖啡的陆舟,差点没被呛到。 Coughed is putting down the cup, Lu Zhou took the paper goods to wipe the lower jaw, gets angry to say. 干咳着放下了杯子,陆舟取过纸巾抹了下嘴,黑着脸说道。 „...... Thanks, does not use.” “……谢谢,不用了。” „haha, should not be shy, friend of mine. Besides the science, the life also has many other pleasure that is worth pursuing, if not because had/left this accident/surprise, I also really want to lead you to experience, but...... will have the opportunity to say next time again.” “哈哈,别害羞,我的朋友。除了科学之外,生活还有许多其他值得追逐的乐趣,如果不是因为出了这个意外,我还真想带你去见识见识,但……还是下次有机会再说吧。” Maximu patted under his shoulder frank with a smile, then left swaggering. 马西姆爽朗地笑着拍了下他肩膀,然后便大摇大摆地走掉了。 The news that Helios fusion reactor ignition plan postpones, has not affected the tranquility of St. Petersburg. Even if » Pravda » this representative the authoritative newspaper of official organ, proposed one in end the page position superficially, because the imu congress convenes, the scholars visit wait all kinds of reasons, is originally scheduled the ignition plan that the beginning of the month launches to postpone for a week. 赫利俄斯聚变堆点火计划推迟的消息,并没有影响到圣彼得堡市的宁静。哪怕是《真理报》这种代表着官方喉舌的权威报纸,也只是在末页的位置轻描淡写地提了一笔,因为imu大会召开、各国学者来访等等各种各样的原因,原定于月初启动的点火计划将推迟一个星期。 However, even for postponing of this ignition plan, Russian official has brought superficially. However many political smell keen person with high aspirations can from „visit the presidents in three countries of Baltic Sea to return to homeland ahead of time” and „Unified Energy System St. Petersburg Branch manager, because the duty bribe is arrested” in wait a series of traces, smells a unusual flavor. 不过,即便对于这次点火计划的推迟,俄罗斯官方只是轻描淡写地一笔带过了。然而不少政治嗅觉敏锐的有心人还是能够从“出访波罗的海三国的总统提前回国”、“统一电力公司圣彼得堡分公司经理因为职务受贿被捕”等等一系列的蛛丝马迹中,嗅到一丝不寻常的味道。 Probably not visible storm , and even the sky of entire Russian electrical power system is fermenting in St. Petersburg...... 就好像一场看不见的风暴,正在圣彼得堡、乃至整个俄罗斯电力系统的上空酝酿着…… Left that afternoon of Kuririn Xiya Hotel in Maximu, the scholar from the world started to arrive in this almost already for the International Mathematics Congress soared the five-star hotel crowded. 就在马西姆离开克林西亚酒店的当天下午,来自世界各地的学者开始密集地抵达这间几乎已经为国际数学家大会腾空了的五星级酒店。 In fact, yesterday, many people had arrived here. 事实上,早在昨天的时候,不少人就已经抵达了这里。 For example Lu Zhou in the past teachers in Princeton- Professor Deligne, had had Professor Fefferman of cooperation with him in the ns equation issue, as well as that plans it is said before Professor Faltings who the retirement promotes a flash news. 比如陆舟当年在普林斯顿的导师-德利涅教授,还有曾经和他在ns方程问题上有过合作的费弗曼教授,以及那位据说是打算在退休之前搞个大新闻的法尔廷斯教授。 But this point, Lu Zhou also knows in the breakfast. 而这一点,陆舟也是在早餐的时候才知道的。 However compares Deligne and Professor Fefferman these old friends, made the Lu Zhou mood experience the obvious fluctuation truly, that carried the suitcase to stand in the form of hotel inside the main hall. 不过相比起德利涅、费弗曼教授这些老朋友,真正让陆舟的情绪出现了明显波动的,还是那个拎着行李箱站在酒店大堂里的身影。 The golden hair of silk fabrics tied a slender ponytail after the brain, under contrast of white long skirt, such as the floating light on snow of winter equally was dazzling. The line of that delicate shoulder and body outline looks four years ago full some, but why actually does not know, that type makes people unable to feel relieved the feeling of is actually compares for four years ago makes one care. 绸缎似的金发在脑后束成了一只修长的马尾,在白色的长裙的衬托之下,就如冬日之雪上的浮光一样耀眼。那纤弱的肩膀和身体轮廓的线条看着比四年前饱满了些许,但却不知为何,那种让人无法放心的感觉却是比起四年前更让人在意了。 Is coming out from the buffet, moves toward Lu Zhou of elevator across the great hall, then recognized her. 正从自助餐厅里出来,穿过大堂走向电梯的陆舟,一眼便认出了她。 But seemed like feels his line of sight, carried the suitcase to stand in Vera in hotel lobbies, from the crowd then glimpsed that familiar form. 而似乎是感受到了他的视线,拎着行李箱站在酒店大堂中间的薇拉,也从人群中一眼便瞥见了那熟悉的身影。 „Professor......” “教授……” Shouted one low voice, in that sapphire pupil inscribed instantaneously wiped to be surprised and pleasantly surprised. 小声呼喊了一句,那蓝宝石般的瞳孔中瞬间写上了一抹惊讶与惊喜。 The right hand loosened gripping of suitcase two bar, kept same place her to run to rush in the Lu Zhou direction the suitcase. 右手松开了行李箱拖杆的握把,将行李箱留在原地的她一路小跑地向着陆舟的方向奔了过去。 According to according to law of inertia in Newtonian mechanics, if she did not decelerate to continue to go forward at this time, the next movement can hit to fill with Lu Zhou probably. 按根据牛顿力学中的惯性原理,如果这时候她不减速继续前进,下一个动作大概会和陆舟撞个满怀。 However, this movement out of the ordinary, was some stimulation is really excessive regarding some young girl. 然而,这种出格的动作,对于某位少女来说实在是有些刺激过头了。 In ashamed heart and under influence of anxious wait a series of physiological action, as she and Lu Zhou distance is getting more and more near, footsteps that dashes eventually like filling lead slow. 在羞耻心与紧张等等一系列的生理作用的影响之下,随着她与陆舟的距离越来越近,那飞奔的脚步终究还是像灌了铅一样迟缓了下来。 Stands firm in the Lu Zhou front, does not know because of running or because of anything Vera, but the cheeks exude the flushed, before putting out a hand to smooth out the volume, fast flutters the chaotic sending silk, the expression somewhat said bashfully. 在陆舟的面前站定,不知是因为奔跑还是因为什么而脸颊泛起潮红的薇拉,伸手飞快地捋平了额前飘乱的发丝,表情有些忸怩地说道。 „...... Does not see for a long time.” “……好久不见。” „Truly long time no see,” looks at this familiar face, on the face of Lu Zhou showed the smiling face, „is your health good?” “确实好久不见了,”看着这熟悉的面庞,陆舟的脸上露出了笑容,“你的身体还好吧？” „Un...... I am all right, does not need to be worried about me.” “嗯……我没事的,不用担心我。” Although obtained the affirmative answer, but that does not know look why dodges suddenly, how is to make Lu Zhou unable to feel relieved. 虽然得到了肯定的答复,但那不知为何忽然躲闪的眼神,却是让陆舟怎么都放不下心来。 When Lu Zhou is preparing to closely examine, the high-heeled shoes tread the sound on granite floor to transmit from side. 就在陆舟正准备追问的时候,高跟鞋踏在花岗岩地板上的声音从旁边传来。 „Your this instead made one be worried.” “你这样反而让人更担心了。” Two people as if by prior agreement looks to that side, sees only one to carry own suitcase, picked up Vera's Morina of suitcase single-handedly, has arrived at two people side. 两人不约而同的向那边看去,只见一手拎着自己的行李箱,一手捡起了薇拉的行李箱的莫丽娜,已经走到了两人的旁边。 Because had seen in Jinling last year the reason, compares Vera, Morina changes to the feeling of Lu Zhou is actually very big. 因为去年才在金陵见过的缘故,相比起薇拉而言,莫丽娜给陆舟的感觉变化倒不是很大。 Must say that has the words that anything changes only, probably is the long windproof coat of that protection against the cold, changed into a greyish-green short coat. 要说唯一有什么变化的话,大概就是那件御寒的长风衣,换成了一件灰绿色短外套。 Reveals the coming to one's ear short hair that the boy air/Qi slightly, is gathering the white shirt and khaki long pants of that belt/bring stripe, quite the feeling of placing in last century Paris street. 稍显男孩子气的过耳短发,合着那带条纹的白衬衫与卡其色长西裤,颇给人一种身处于上个世纪巴黎街头的感觉。 Hears the Morina those words, Vera hesitated slightly, said low voice. 听到莫丽娜的那句话,薇拉略微迟疑了下,小声说道。 „? Has?” “诶？有吗？” „I felt you, if has what issue, said is quite good. Hiding shortcomings that somebody becomes famous, you are his treasure apprentice, he can definitely find the way to help you solve.” “我觉得你如果有什么问题的话,还是说出来比较好。某个人可是出了名的护短,你又是他的宝贝徒弟,他肯定能想办法帮你解决。” „No, I am really all right...... please do not need to be worried about me.” “不,我真的没事……请不用担心我。” It seems like felt that from questioning of Morina the pressure, received Vera who the suitcase two bar grips to say from her hand low voice the sentence thanks, then carried the suitcase half step to walk toward the direction of elevator, even forgot to say goodbye to Lu Zhou. 似乎是从莫丽娜的追问中感觉到了压力,从她手中接过行李箱拖杆握把的薇拉小声说了句谢谢,然后便拎着行李箱快步向电梯的方向走去了,甚至忘了与陆舟道别。 Looks at Vera to move toward the back of elevator, Lu Zhou draws nearby Morina, the tone asked earnestly. 看着薇拉走向电梯的背影,陆舟拉了旁边的莫丽娜一把,语气认真地问道。 „Aren't you her teammate? Doesn't your point understand about her situation?” “你不是她的队友吗？你一点关于她的情况都不了解吗？” „Obviously, my teammate completely has not opened the heart to me very much, let alone knew even, without her permission, you thinks that I will tell you a privacy of virtuous young woman?” “很显然,我的队友并没有完全地向我敞开心扉,何况就算知道了,没有她的允许,你认为我会把一位淑女的隐私告诉你吗？” Shows the whites of the eyes toward Lu Zhou, Morina pulled out own sleeve, carried the suitcase half step to turn toward the direction of elevator to pursue. 朝着陆舟翻了个白眼,莫丽娜将自己的袖子抽了回来,拎着行李箱快步向着电梯的方向追过去了。 The expression looks at the direction of elevator complex, Lu Zhou fell into silent. 表情复杂地看着电梯的方向,陆舟陷入了沉默。 At this time, familiar has several points of happy feeling sound together, suddenly passed from side. 就在这时候,又一道熟悉中带着几分喜感的声音,忽然从旁边传了过来。 „Professor!” “教授！” By this sound attraction, Lu Zhou has turned the head immediately, seeing only a skin color slightly obviously is of dark, the young fellow hair curl, is pulling a skin color is also deep and flow slightly volume long hair an arm of Hispanic beautiful woman, with emptying the right hand greeted to him warmly. 被这声音吸引,陆舟立刻转过头去,只见一位肤色稍显黝黑、头发卷曲的男青年,正挽着一位肤色同样较深、流着一头微卷长发的拉丁裔美女的胳膊,用空出来的右手热情地向他打招呼。 Sees Lu Zhou does not seem to respond, probably this fellow for fear that he forgot himself to resemble continued to shout. 见陆舟似乎没有反应过来,这家伙就好像生怕他忘了自己似的继续喊道。 „Hey, Professor! I am Hardy! Should you not give to forget me?” “嘿,教授！我是哈迪啊！您该不会把我给忘了吧？” „I know certainly am you, but requires time to digest this huge information......” “我当然知道是你,只是需要一点时间去消化这庞大的信息……” On the beautiful woman who the line of sight in Hardy and his nearby that orientation greeted wavered back and forth, Lu Zhou opened mouth, separates put out a few words good long while, „have you...... married?” 视线在哈迪和他旁边那位向自己打招呼的美女身上来回游移了一下,陆舟张了张嘴,隔了好半天才吐出了一句话,“你都……已经结婚了？” On the face revealed the frank smiling face and neat white tooth, the Hardy embarrassed feeling back of the head, said with a smile, „naturally! How to say again, my doctor graduated so many years, the age was also big, let alone now is a professor. Did not marry again , was too rather pitiful.” 脸上露出了爽朗的笑容和一口整齐的白牙,哈迪不好意思的摸着后脑勺,笑着说道,“当然！再怎么说,我都博士毕业这么多年了,年龄也不小了,何况现在都已经是教授了。再没结婚,未免也太可怜了。” Lu Zhou: „......” 陆舟:“……” This fellow, under hits this aspect also is really as always, always likes adding unnecessary words behind original no problem words. 这家伙,在欠打这方面还真是一如既往,总是喜欢在一句本来没什么毛病的话后面加一句多余的话。 Really, initially should not make him graduate early. 果然,当初就不应该这么早让他毕业。 It seems like detected that the badness in Lu Zhou look, Hardy somewhat afraid after he exchanged greetings two, then leads the newly-married soon wife toward the direction of elevator to walk. 似乎是察觉到了陆舟眼神中的不善,哈迪有些心虚地和他寒暄了两句之后,便带着自己新婚不久的妻子向电梯的方向走去了。 According to his view, they are two months ago marries, but this time comes to St. Petersburg, besides attending the imu congress, another matter then to be on one's honeymoon. 根据他的说法,他们是两个月前结婚的,而这次来圣彼得堡,除了参加imu大会之外,另一件事便是为了度蜜月。 But chooses the traveling schedule and imu of congress honeymoon arranges in together, is the name that if to attend the imu congress to the school proposed that application, school not only will permit the leave with pay and reimbursement travel expense, will also give them the business travel subsidy of certain quota...... 而之所以选择将蜜月的行程和imu大会安排在一起,是因为如果以参加imu大会的名义向学校提出申请的话,学校方面不但会允许带薪休假并且报销路费,还会给他们一定额度的差旅补助…… After attending the imu congress, they will also fly a Italy in the name of favorable turn and Greece. 在参加完imu大会之后,他们还会以转机的名义飞一趟意大利和希腊。 In everyone of Lu Zhou understanding, is competent this show operation, as if also only had Hardy...... 在陆舟认识的所有人中,能干出这种骚操作的,似乎也只有哈迪了…… Besides Hardy, inside the main hall in hotel, Lu Zhou also ran into Qin Yue. 除了哈迪之外,在酒店的大堂里,陆舟还遇到了秦岳。 Four years ago, this young fellow changed can be said as from inside to outside, earth-shaking. 比起四年前,这小伙子变化可以说是由内到外、翻天覆地了。 Remembers just came to Princeton time, this young fellow is a very honest simple-hearted person, present he is not only way one treats people or style of speaking, a very credible feeling. 记得刚来普林斯顿的时候,这小伙子还是个挺老实木讷的人,现在的他不但是待人接物还是谈吐方面,都给人一种很靠谱的感觉。 Saw that own students become more and more well, in Lu Zhou heart naturally also quite happy. 看到自己的学生们变得越来越好,陆舟心中自然也是相当的高兴。 Lets he a little small losing is only, Vera is not willing to confess to oneself as before, her body had/left what condition...... 唯一让他有点小小的失落的就是,薇拉依旧不肯向自己坦白,她的身体到底是出了什么状况…… Hopes such as she said that is not the major problem. 但愿就如她所说的那样,不是什么大问题。 But Lu Zhou always felt, perhaps matter does not have him to imagine that simple...... 但陆舟总觉得,事情恐怕没他想象中的那么简单…… . 。
